TaylorMade introduces the new Qi4D fairway woods with advanced customization and proven technologies for improved performance and stability.
TaylorMade Qi4D: Proven Design, Enhanced Features
The TaylorMade Qi4D series utilizes an advanced multi-material construction that combines various materials depending on the model. This variety allows for finely tuned centers of gravity, contributing to high playability and versatility. Subtle design refinements and modern detail adjustments complement the new features, with a strong focus on individual customization to suit each player’s needs.
Qi4D Fairway Woods: Control, Versatility, and Customization
The Qi4D fairway woods feature refined contact points that enable more consistent ball speed across the face. An optimized center of gravity offers a balanced blend of distance, control, and versatility compared to the previous model. Technologies like the enhanced Cut-Trough Speed Pocket stabilize ball speed on lower-face hits and reduce spin, while the Twist Face curvature ensures controlled ball flight even on off-center strikes. All models come with a 4° loft sleeve, allowing adjustments in loft, lie, and face angle. Integrated Trajectory Adjustment System (TAS) weights enable fine-tuning of spin and shot shape. The suggested retail price is 399 euros.
Tour and Max Variants Cater to Different Needs
The Qi4D Tour fairway woods target players with defined ball flight preferences. A 65g tungsten weight is positioned low and directly behind the titanium face to support a high launch with reduced spin. Titanium in the sole and face, along with a carbon crown, adds discretionary weight. Three TAS weights allow precise ball flight adjustments from neutral setups to draw or fade biases.
The Qi4D Max and Max Lite fairway woods emphasize forgiveness. Larger clubheads and a shallower face profile increase stability. Weight is distributed towards the perimeter and back of the head, assisted by 8g or 4g TAS weights respectively. The Lite version is designed for golfers seeking maximum clubhead speed and distance, equipped with lightweight components. These models are also priced at 399 euros.
Qi4D Hybrids: Versatile Long Iron Replacements
The Qi4D hybrids incorporate the multi-material concept from the fairway woods. Optimized centers of gravity, proven technologies like Speed Pocket and Twist Face, along with comprehensive adjustment options, provide a balanced combination of distance, control, and forgiveness. A progressive topline adjusts to the model: Qi4D hybrids have a slightly sleeker look, while the Max and Max Lite variants present a bolder appearance.
The Qi4D Rescue combines stainless steel and a carbon crown to deliver defined distances with a steep launch angle. An 8g TAS weight and a 3° loft sleeve offer extensive customization. The Qi4D Max Rescue features a larger head and a more rearward weight position for added forgiveness. The Qi4D Line Rescue is especially lightweight, aimed at golfers seeking maximum clubhead speed. All Qi4D hybrids are available at a price of 349 euros.
The Qi4D series presents a product family building on proven technology with targeted refinements, offering a high level of customization, playability, and versatility for different skill levels and player types. Pre-orders open on January 8,
